And yes I have done a search.....

Looking for pics of defenders with 285/75-16's on modulars. Looking to go for this combo but would like some pics if possible.

Any time I try a search either on here or Google etc it just throws up pics of all sizes of tyres

Looking good Neilly. Am I right in thinking those are 16x8 flavour? 0 offset?

Where did you get your modulars from Neilly? Is that +08 or -08 offset?

Kermit that looks purposeful

Not sure MQ,

regarding negative or positive I cannot be sure , no negative sign on paperwork, and seems that people get confused easily what is meant by neg or pos. LOL.

receipt did not show a negative sign, ( not sure if it would ) the PO got them , the receipt shows silverline was the supplier. Part number WO1680085165BMOD.

May be worth giving them a shout on 01926 490002 for more info.

Cheers

Thanks Neilly. The only 16x8 I can find are either 0 offset (which I think is about ideal) or -35 which stick out too far past the arches. And I hate those wide arches...

Devon 4x4 have them if you google the part number.

Ones fitted to mine fit inside std wheel arches just, and I do not have spacers fitted.

Never thought to measure them to see if they are negative or positive, LOL

Cheers

Hi MQ,

Did ya get a chance to find out if you needed negative or positive offset?

It's looking like the ideal offset will be 0. Especially if I decide on modulars.

What I have noticed is that for some reason there are far better size ranges available in the states compared to here.

For example I would really like 35" tyres as I like them tall but all the tyres I can find in this country that size are a bit too wide ie 12.5 inches..

Makes me wonder why I have et08 fitted, might have to call a wheel supplier myself.

cheers

Probably just depends on manufacturer. I wouldn't worry. Yours looks good
